Changes Since the Preliminary Results 

Based on our analysis of the 

comments received from interested 

parties, Commerce has made no changes 

to the margin calculations for MAL. 

Final Results of Review 

We determine that the following 

weighted-average dumping margins 

exist for the period May 1, 2022, 

through April 30, 2022. 

Exporter/producer 

Weightaverage 

dumping 

margin 

(percent) 

Maithan Alloys Limited ............... 1.01 

Disclosure 

We have not made changes to the 

margin calculations for MAL in these 

final results of review. Consequently, 

there are no new calculations to disclose 

in accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b) 

for these final results of review. 

Assessment Rates 

Commerce has determined, and CBP 

shall assess, antidumping duties on all 

appropriate entries in this review, in 

accordance with section 751(a)(2)(C) of 

the Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b). 

Commerce intends to issue assessment 

instructions to CBP no earlier than 35 

days after the date of publication of 

these final results in the Federal 

Register. If a timely summons is filed at 

the U.S. Court of International Trade, 

the assessment instructions will direct 

CBP not to liquidate relevant entries 

until the time for parties to file a request 

for a statutory injunction has expired 

(i.e., within 90 days of publication). 

Consistent with Commerce’s 

clarification of its assessment practice, 

for entries of subject merchandise 

during the POR produced by the abovereferenced respondent for which they 

did not know the merchandise was 

destined for the United States, we will 

instruct CBP to liquidate such entries at 

the all-others rate established in the 

less-than-fair-value (LTFV) investigation 

of 17.74 percent ad valorem if there is 

no rate for the intermediate 

company(ies) involved in the 

transaction.3

Cash Deposit Requirements 

The following cash deposit 

requirements will be effective for all 

shipments of subject merchandise 

entered, or withdrawn from warehouse, 

for consumption on or after the 

publication date of the final results of 

this administrative review as provided 

by section 751(a)(2)(C) of the Act: (1) the 

cash deposit rate for the company listed 

above will be equal to the weightedaverage dumping margin established in 

the final results of the review; (2) for 

subject merchandise exported by a 

company not covered in this review but 

covered in a prior completed segment of 

the proceeding, the cash deposit rate 

will continue to be the companyspecific rate published in the completed 

segment for the most recent period; (3) 

if the exporter is not a firm covered in 

this review or the original LTFV 

investigation, but the producer is, then 

the cash deposit rate will be the rate 

established in the completed segment 

for the most recent period for the 

producer of the subject merchandise; (4) 

the cash deposit rate for all other 

producers or exporters will continue to 

be 17.74 percent ad valorem, the allothers rate established in the LTFV 

investigation. These cash deposit 

requirements, when imposed, shall 

remain in effect until further notice. 

Notification to Importers 

This notice serves as a final reminder 

to importers of their responsibility 

under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a 

certificate regarding the reimbursement 

of antidumping duties prior to 

liquidation of the relevant entries 

during this POR. Failure to comply with 

this requirement could result in 

Commerce’s presumption that 

reimbursement of antidumping duties 

occurred and the subsequent assessment 

of double antidumping duties. 

Administrative Protective Orders 

This notice also serves as a reminder 

to parties subject to an administrative 

protective order (APO) of their 

responsibility concerning the return or 

destruction of proprietary information 

disclosed under APO in accordance 

with 19 CFR 351.305(a)(3), which 

continues to govern business 

proprietary information in this segment 

of the proceeding. Timely written 

notification of the return or destruction 

of APO materials, or conversion to 

judicial protective order, is hereby 

requested. Failure to comply with the 

regulations and terms of an APO is a 

violation subject to sanction. 

Notification to Interested Parties 

We are issuing and publishing these 

results of administrative review in 

accordance with sections 751(a) and 

777(i) of the Act, and 351.221(b)(5). 

Dated: November 30, 2023.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On June 6, 2023, Commerce published 

in the Federal Register the preliminary 

results of the 2021–2022 administrative 

review of the antidumping duty order 

on diffusion-annealed, nickel-plated 

flat-rolled steel products (nickel-plated 

steel products) from Japan.1 This review 

covers one producer/exporter of the 

subject merchandise, Toyo Kohan. We 

invited interested parties to comment on 

the Preliminary Results.2 On July 6, 

2023, we received case briefs from the 

petitioner 3 and from Toyo Kohan.4 On 

September 14, 2023, Commerce 

extended the deadline for the final 

results of review until December 1, 

2023.5 For a complete description of the 

events that occurred since the 

Preliminary Results, see the Issues and 

Decision Memorandum.6 Commerce 

conducted this review in accordance 

with section 751(a)(1)(B) of the Tariff 

Act of 1930, as amended (the Act). 

Scope of the Order 7

The products covered by the Order 

are nickel-plated steel products. A full 

description of the scope of the Order is 

contained in the Issues and Decision 

Memorandum. 

Analysis of Comments Received 

All issues raised in the case briefs that 

were submitted by parties in this 

administrative review are addressed in 

the Issues and Decision Memorandum 

and are listed in the appendix to this 

notice. The Issues and Decision 

Memorandum is a public document and 

is on file electronically via Enforcement 

and Compliance’s Antidumping and 

Countervailing Duty Centralized 

Electronic Service System (ACCESS). 

ACCESS is available to registered users 

at https://access.trade.gov. In addition, a 

complete version of the Issues and 

Decision Memorandum can be accessed 

at https://access.trade.gov/public/ 

FRNoticesListLayout.aspx. 

Changes Since the Preliminary Results 

Based on a review of the record and 

the comments received from interested 

parties regarding our Preliminary 

Results, and for the reasons explained in 

the Issues and Decision Memorandum, 

we made certain changes to the 

weighted-average dumping margin 

calculations for Toyo Kohan for the final 

results of review.8

Final Results of Review 

We determine that the following 

weighted-average dumping margin 

exists for the period May 1, 2021, 

through April 30, 2022: 

Producer/exporter 

Weightedaverage 

dumping 

margin 

(percent) 

Toyo Kohan Co., Ltd .................. 0.92 

Disclosure 

We intend to disclose the calculations 

performed in connection with these 

final results of review to interested 

parties in this proceeding within five 

days after public announcement of the 

final results or, if there is no public 

announcement, within five days of the 

date of publication of the notice of final 

results in the Federal Register, in 

accordance with 19 CFR 351.224(b). 

Assessment Rates 

Pursuant to section 751(a)(2)(C) of the 

Act and 19 CFR 351.212(b)(1), 

Commerce has determined, and U.S. 

Customs and Border Protection (CBP) 

shall assess, antidumping duties on all 

appropriate entries of subject 

merchandise in accordance with the 

final results of this review. 

For Toyo Kohan, we calculated 

importer-specific ad valorem duty 

assessment rates on the basis of the ratio 

of the total amount of dumping 

calculated for each importer’s examined 

sales and the total entered value of those 

sales in accordance with 19 CFR 

351.212(b)(1). Where an importerspecific assessment rate is de minimis 

(i.e., less than 0.5 percent), the entries 

by that importer will be liquidated 

without regard to antidumping duties. 

For entries of subject merchandise 

during the POR produced by Toyo 

Kohan for which it did not know that 

its merchandise was destined for the 

United States, we will instruct CBP to 

liquidate unreviewed entries at the allothers rate established in the less-thanfair-value (LTFV) investigation of 45.42 

percent ad valorem,9 if there is no rate 

for the intermediate company(ies) 

involved in the transaction. 

Commerce intends to issue 

assessment instructions to CBP no 

earlier than 35 days after the date of 

publication of the final results of this 

review in the Federal Register. If a 

timely summons is filed at the U.S. 

Court of International Trade, the 

assessment instructions will direct CBP 

not to liquidate relevant entries until the 

time for parties to file a request for a 

statutory injunction has expired (i.e., 

within 90 days of publication). 

Cash Deposit Requirements 

Upon publication of this notice in the 

Federal Register, the following cash 

deposit requirements will be effective 

for all shipments of nickel-plated steel 

products entered, or withdrawn from 

warehouse, for consumption on or after 

the date of publication as provided by 

section 751(a)(2) of the Act: (1) the cash 

deposit rates for the company subject to 

this review will be equal to the 

weighted-average dumping margin 

established in the final results of the 

review; (2) for merchandise exported by 

producers or exporters not covered in 

this review but covered in a prior 

completed segment of the proceeding, 

the cash deposit rate will continue to be 

the company-specific rate published in 

the completed segment for the most 

recent period; (3) if the exporter is not 

a firm covered in this review, a prior 

review, or the original LTFV 

investigation but the producer has been 

covered in a prior completed segment of 

this proceeding, then the cash deposit 

rate will be the rate established in the 

completed segment for the most recent 

period for the producer of the 

merchandise; and (4) the cash deposit 

rate for all other producers or exporters 

will continue to be 45.42 percent, the 

all-others rate established in the LTFV 

investigation for this proceeding.10

These cash deposit requirements, when 

imposed, shall remain in effect until 

further notice. 

Notification to Importers 

This notice serves as a final reminder 

to importers of their responsibility 

under 19 CFR 351.402(f)(2) to file a 

certificate regarding the reimbursement

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On June 7, 2023, Commerce published 

the Preliminary Results and invited 

interested parties to comment.1 These 

final results cover one producer and 

exporter of subject merchandise for 

which an administrative review was 

initiated and not rescinded. The sole 

respondent in this administrative 

review is Borusan Mannesmann Boru 

Sanayi ve Ticaret A.S. (Borusan 

Mannesmann) and Borusan Istikbal 

Ticaret T.A.S. (Istikbal) (collectively, 

Borusan).2 On July 7, 2023, Borusan 

submitted a case brief.3 On July 14, 

2023, Wheatland Tube Company 

(Wheatland), a domestic producer and 

interested party, submitted a rebuttal 

brief.4 On September 6, 2023, 

Commerce extended the deadline for the 

final results by 57 days to December 1, 

2023.5 Commerce conducted this review 

in accordance with section 751(a)(1)(B) 

of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended 

(the Act). 

On October 12, 2022, Nucor Tubular 

Products Inc. (Nucor), a petitioner in 

this proceeding, withdrew its request for 

an administrative review with respect to 

every company except Borusan.6 With 

respect to Istikbal, one of the companies 

which claimed no shipments during the 

POR, we continue 7 to find it to be part 

of the single entity, Borusan, and we 

find no record evidence that warrants 

altering this treatment. Further, no party 

presented comments addressing this 

issue in their case briefs. Therefore, 

because we find that Borusan had 

shipments during this POR, we have not 

made a determination of no shipments 

with respect to Istikbal and the 

withdrawal of request for review is 

moot. 

Scope of the Order 8

The scope of the Order covers circular 

welded carbon steel standard pipe and 

tube products from Turkey. A full 

description of the scope of the Order is 

contained in the Issues and Decision
